I transitioned to the Aerobika from the Accapella at least 2 years ago. I am not sure it works better, but it is easier to use and easier to sterilize. I also like the form factor more. I am still using the original one I purchased.

Elaine - Can you tell me, other than the ease of use, how the Aerobika differs from the Acapela? My daughter (who also has bronchiectasis) has suggested I change. Can it be used in combination with the neb, or is it used separately like Acapela? I would love to streamline my treatment routine.

I started with the aerobika 2 years ago, and am still using it as well. When I began the transition to 7% Saline ( I was using the pari vios green machine with sprint cup) it was too harsh to do at the same time. Now that I am using the Innospire Go, it is a non-issue (it cannot connect to aerobika.
